Guessing on the NBC week 17 game.

At the half of the later week 16 games, can anyone guess which will be the NBC week 17 game?

Surely the game matching the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers at Green Bay will have meaning but I believe NFC network Fox gets to pick one game, NBC can not have and at this point that will be Green Bay hosting Minnesota.

As of now, the Kansas City Chiefs and Jets, the first two teams from the old A.F.L. to win Super Bowls, respectively have clinched a playoff spot and control their destiny for one.

The Atlanta Falcons still have a chance to make the playoffs, having handed the Carolina Panthers their first loss.

Best guess for NBC at this point is the  San Diego Chargers at Denver Broncos.

If the Chiefs win next week at home vs their old rivals, the Oakland Raiders, they clinch at least a “5” seed, meaning an on paper easier wild card round game likely at Houston but possibly Indianapolis rather than at Cincinnati.

If that happens then no matter the result of the Broncos home tilt vs the Bengals tomorrow night, Denver will need a win or at least a tie to either win the division or make the playoffs.
